similarities

The state of affairs at work strangely resemble the state of affairs in my country.
- The scale of operations too big
- Too much politics
- Power being misused
- Some great work being done at the grassroots - struggling to make them mainstream
- High level changes of government/ officials does seems to have no or little impact on the lower level of people
- Strange mixed emotions of hope and hopelessness
- There are no clear/straight solutions or answers to things. Everything has a strong connection to everything else hence very very complex
- Tight rope walking between modernisation and holding back of culture
- Bureaucratic
- Resistance to change
- Fighting issues that are a legacy
- Has a HUGE potential to be an 'exemplar'
- Has a lot of talented people
- Has a lot of untapped knowledge

humm...i never expected this.
finally, due to all of this, the 'progress' or 'advancements' (when made) are so slow that it earns no appreciation.
